  • Abstract
    Optical methods offer little handling damage in nano-particle sorting; which is useful in nanoscale lithography. We describe some strategies that make use of or overcome Brownian forces in order to achieve effective sorting and discuss the usefulness of tracking to evaluate sorting effectiveness.
